Sinopse

In "The Complete Works of Bram Stoker," readers are invited into the expansive literary universe of one of Victorian literature'Äôs most enigmatic figures. This comprehensive collection encapsulates not only Stoker's most renowned work, the iconic horror novel "Dracula," but also his lesser-known short stories, non-fiction, and theatrical works. Through his vivid prose and gothic narrative style, Stoker explores themes of love, mortality, and the supernatural, set against a backdrop of Victorian anxieties about modernity and sexuality. His blending of folklore, myth, and psychological depth marks a significant contribution to the genres of horror and suspense, making him an influential precursor to later 20th-century writers. Born in 1847 in Dublin, Ireland, Bram Stoker'Äôs rich literary output is deeply influenced by his experiences, including a formative friendship with the actor Henry Irving and his engagements with the cultural and political discourses of his time. Stoker'Äôs background in theater and his detailed study of Eastern European folklore provided him with a unique perspective that he deftly weaves through his narratives, enhancing their authenticity and psychological resonance. I highly recommend "The Complete Works of Bram Stoker" for anyone interested in the roots of gothic literature and the complexities of human fear and desire. This collection serves not only as an essential reference for scholars of gothic fiction but also as an engrossing experience for casual readers seeking to delve into the darkly enchanting world crafted by Stoker's masterful storytelling.

Some say the great mystery of how one can live in two worlds at once died with Thomas Hunter many years ago. Still others that the gateway to that greater reality was and is only the stuff of dreams. They are all wrong.  
 
Rachelle Matthews, who grew up in the small town of Eden, Utah, discovered just how wrong when she dreamed and awoke in another world. There she learned that she was the 49th Mystic, the prophesied one, tasked with finding five ancient seals before powerful enemies destroy her. If Rachelle succeeds in her quest, peace will reign. If she fails, the world will forever be locked in darkness. 
 
In The 49th Mystic, Rachelle found the first three of those five seals through great peril and mind-altering adventure. But two seals remain hidden and the fate of both worlds hangs in their balance. 
 
As Rachelle Matthews sits deep in a dungeon, Vlad Smith is just getting started. Thomas Hunter's world is about to be turned inside out. The mystics say that there is no defense against the Fifth Seal--but finding it will cost Rachelle everything. 
 
So begins the final volume of high stakes in one girl's quest to find an ancient path that will save humanity. The clock is ticking; the end rushes forward. 
 
Ready? Set?

The themes that thread through these nine accomplished stories are drawn from the great tradition of the twentieth-century weird tale, and they are suffused with a distinctly cosmopolitan, European feel. Mark Samuels writes about the fundamental fears of modern life, especially the effects of isolation and the dislocation that city dwellers can experience in their inhospitable, man-made environment.
Black as Darkness: Jack Wells drained his second can of ice-cold beer and waved away
a fat bluebottle that had drifted lazily across his line of vision. The heat was tremendous. He couldn't remember a summer like it, or at least not since '76, or maybe '47.

Soon, Tab's art portends real-life disasters like his father’s death. Tab becomes convinced his bump—his third eye—causes bad things. 
Will Tab be able to control this power before it takes another life? Can he free himself from the ghost, who is determined to use that power to untold ends? 
The answers lie in the secrets revealed by Tab’s terrible third eye.About the Contents
